TVer Launches Special Program Featuring Local Treasures

From ramen encyclopedias to local gourmet finds, TVer brings Japan's hidden gems to screens nationwide.

TVer has announced the upcoming launch of its nationwide special program series titled "Totteoki" which is set to deliver unique local content starting December 23, 2024. This initiative aims to spotlight hidden gems and exclusive regional programming from 55 broadcasters across Japan, providing viewers with access to seldom-seen content showcasing the diverse culture, cuisine, and attractions spanning from Hokkaido down to Okinawa.

The TVer platform, which is Japan's prominent free streaming service, has long provided audiences with accessible television programming. Now, through this collaborative endeavor with local broadcast stations, TVer intends to maximize the exposure and value of regional content. Each week's programming will focus on specific themes, creating tailor-made viewing experiences for audiences eager to explore various regional features of Japanese life.

Beginning on the stated date, viewers can enjoy the "Totteoki" showcase over ten weeks, with each week highlighting different themes related to Japanese cuisine, travel, and local specialties. For the duration of the program, content is organized thematically to capture the interests of those wishing to discover more about specific regions or culinary delights.

The lineup will kick off with the "National Ramen Encyclopedia" during the first week, captivating ramen lovers with typical and unique variations from different localities. Following this, the series will roll out segments on local gourmet delicacies and intriguing travel routes, ensuring there is something for everyone. For example, viewers can expect to explore the nuances of regional specialties through weeks designated to content like the "Local Gourmet Encyclopedia" and potential explorations like "National Animal Paradise".

TVer is also committed to diversifying the ways viewers engage with this content, which is available free of charge, ensuring easy access on multiple devices including phones, computers, and TV applications. This type of distribution is positioned not just as entertainment but also as intimate insights about the uniqueness of communities across Japan.

The project is anticipated to bolster interest and participation among local audiences who appreciate the stories and flavors of their homeland, thereby contributing to cultural preservation and awareness.

With such initiatives, TVer strengthens its role as the leading streaming service by connecting the dots between viewers and curated local content, and making it simple for audiences to embrace regional richness. The vast array of insights provided through the "Totteoki" collection encourages viewers to experience Japan more holistically.

To join this exciting exploration of local delights, viewers are encouraged to tune in to TVer starting December 23, 2024, and to keep checking back on the streaming service for updates on the themed programming and special releases throughout the showcase period. This unique opportunity is not to be missed as it invites audiences from all parts of Japan—and beyond—to savor just what their local broadcasters have to offer.

The dedicated "Totteoki" page on TVer will provide details about the shows, available content, and the schedule for upcoming themes. It's more than just telecasting; it's about creating connections and fostering appreciation for local identities through quality programming.
